I imagine it’ll stretch like any other part of your body with practice.

That being said, I had a roommate in college who you could hear that his stream was wider than most. I imagine he might be able to pull this off.

Students can keep a phone in their bag if they really need it. The fact that we ever allowed kids to scroll instead of paying attention in class is absurd.

We use liters for soft drinks and liquor, but gallons for fuel, milk, and water. For recipes we use fluid ounces or cups since gallons are kind of a large for that.

It’s actually a mixed system, similar to the UK but with less metric in the mix.

I’d argue that Skyrim represents a significant downgrade from earlier titles. The simplified mechanics and increased advertising budget made it more accessible, but the writing quality has been in free fall since morrowind.

That being said, this is probably their prettiest title now. I haven’t gotten to try it yet, but supposedly it is a ground up remake, and if it’s on a better engine it may be their least janky game too.

There are food dyes that aren’t synthetic. In the EU, foods like fruit loops or Fanta just don’t have that clearly fake neon color.

My partner had one until about a year ago when it broke irreversibly.

They’re still making payments on it and the thing was already on its third screen when it died. They’re cool and I think the idea is good, but I think the whole “bendable screen” idea is fundamentally flawed for smartphones.

There’s “city” and then there’s “super dense city like NY/SF/wherever”.

I live downtown and I couldn’t use this thing to get groceries or get to work.

My family have something similar going on, they’re 18 and 46.

We’re all politely ignoring it because their parents think trying to forbid it will make it more attractive.

To be clear, the proton bridge is supposed to be accessed via localhost. Connecting via IMAP over a network connection is less secure.

No, although this is a fringe belief among some fringe sects.

That just means they need a sex room to experiment in.

England. I got blind drunk and was stumbling back to a hotel in a western suburb. A group of young men with knives approached me for cash but when I told them to fuck off (not smart, I know) they were so excited to hear my accent they walked me a couple of blocks to the bus station and sent me on my way.

Methinks this is BS, I got 7/11 and I’m in my twenties.

It would have been 9, but even in the bad old days I’ve never known a anywhere it was acceptable to just throw little on the floor in a business, regardless of whether it was a cigarette butt or not.

This is bad for us too. A cratering stock market slows down hiring which depresses wages and makes it harder to find work.

Cars are expensive and necessary in areas without good public transit (read: basically everywhere except a couple of areas in specific cities). Most of us don’t have a year’s salary just sitting in the bank, especially when you’re young.

If you need a car to get to work, you’ll pay what you have to because the alternative is no job which means no home, no healthcare, and no food.

Both systems are purposefully inefficient and byzantine because it increases tax revenue for the state (and bribes for the state government).

The 3 tier system is where alcohol must be sold by the producer to a distributor, by the distributor to a bar/liquor store, and by a bar/liquor store to the consumer. This effectively allows the state to collect tax 3 times on any one serving of alcohol. Unfortunately, it also results in higher prices and less choice for consumers. You can’t just buy liquor on amazon and have it mailed to your home, you (sometimes) can’t just buy from a local distillery, and you have to pay extra for the distributor to do a lot of not very much.

The dealership system allows local government to collect sales tax on resident’s cars and allows local government officials to collect bribes from car dealers whose entire business relies on their competition being illegal. Without dealerships, you could just order a car from a manufacturer to be shipped to your home and you could buy it without cutting a dealer in, but the local government wouldn’t get the sales tax income and your mayor or whatever wouldn’t get to collect as many bribes.

Automatic weapons are regulated and cost more than a new car. Our firearms laws are lax and have many problems, but that isn’t one of them.

I disagree that there is any way to do it. Ultimately, people don’t want you there and are unhappy enough that they’re willing to die rather than cooperate. It is simply too expensive in terms of man hours, lives, and money to keep a population under occupation like that. At the very least, you need to do as the colonial powers did and exploit a local division to deputize some of the locals to rule on your behalf.

Yes, they win most of them. They mostly lose when they try to occupy a foreign country and do counterinsurgency.

There’s a dungeon by me that has stockades but doesn’t allow free use and it is the mother of all missed opportunities.
